It’s December and that means it’s time for the Q# Advent Calendar! Every day leading up to December 24th there will be a new blog post on one of a myriad of topics related to Q#, written by Q# community members, as well as the Microsoft Quantum team. This is the second annual Q# Advent Read more
This week, Dr. Matthias Troyer, a Distinguished Scientist at Microsoft, accepted the 2019 Hamburg Prize for Theoretical Physics – one of the most valuable German prizes in the field – for his groundbreaking contributions to the development of quantum Monte Carlo algorithms. “In Professor Troyer, we are honoring a scientist whose work connects myriad areas Read more
At Microsoft Quantum, our ambition is to help solve some of the world’s most complex challenges through the world’s most scalable quantum system. To deliver on that promise, we’ve been working together with a global quantum community to innovate across every layer of the quantum stack – from applications and software down to control and Read more
We know that Shor’s algorithm can factor integers on a quantum computer exponentially faster than any known classical algorithm, and that there are problems, such as the simulation of physical systems as posed by Richard Feynman in the 1980s, that quantum computers can solve that would take classical computers more than the lifetime of the Read more
As the community of Q# developers grows, we’re always looking for new ways to make you more productive. In this month’s Quantum Development Kit update, we’re bringing you an exciting new feature to enhance our developer experience, as well as two new Quantum Katas. We are happy to introduce Q# code completion, a highly anticipated feature in the Read more
In July 2019, we updated the Quantum Development Kit (QDK) to be fully open-source and invited the community to help shape the developer tools that will empower users to solve some of the world’s biggest problems. We’re excited to highlight some great community contributions in the last month. Our Quantum Katas have been a big Read more
This July we’re celebrating the first anniversary of the Katas; let’s look at the how the project grew and evolved during this year. Read more
At Microsoft, our Quantum mission is to develop and deploy the world’s most scalable, secure, quantum computing system and to support a rich ecosystem of domain experts, developers, and researchers to solve today’s most challenging problems. Read more
